Life Is a Playroom

I’ve scraped together peace where I could find it
When sorrowed, I no longer feel the need to hide it

I’ve played the role again 
Of a child’s favorite toy
Cherished for a short, short while
Then forgotten and cast away 
 

Well, i no longer care...
Life will ever be unfair
But it goes on, so I should too, 
and I’ll have to play this game
without you.
